What gear should an automatic transmission tow truck be in?
1 Answers
An automatic transmission tow truck should be in N gear. The method to operate an automatic transmission vehicle is: 1. Start the car with the gear in N or P position; 2. After starting the engine, wait a few seconds before shifting gears to allow sufficient lubrication of the transmission, depress the brake pedal to engage the correct gear, release the brake pedal, and the vehicle will start normally; 3. When driving on the road, place the gear shift lever in D gear and gradually increase the throttle; 4. When driving on short and small slopes, place the lever in D or L gear and control the throttle to complete the uphill; 5. When driving downhill, use D gear in conjunction with the brake to control the vehicle; 6. When driving on snow, place the lever in L gear and start with L gear to prevent the drive wheels from slipping, then shift to D gear after the car starts moving.
